The Jinkx and DeLa Holiday Special

After this horrible year...this is the perfect way to brighten your holiday season!!! These are two of my favorite drag queens and I was thoroughly entertained.

It's a drag show.

Super clever writing. But it is Book of Mormon-level irreverent.

That's right up my alley, and I bet it's right up your (back) alley.

The choreography is excellent and complicated. The dialogue/songs are raunchy, irreverent, fun, and often hit the spot re: traditions and how they can sometimes make people miserable at Christmas. There's no preaching nor finger pointing saying that keeping traditions is bad. It's just a fun way to remind people to enjoy the moment and not get wrapped up in feeling like they 'have' to do things just because it's ALWAYS been done - even if they don't want to do it any more. (tradition!).

Lest this sound like a depressing and preachy film, it absolutely isn't! It's simply fun and, even better, it's got a happy ending! Great Christmas film to watch early in the season!

Jinkx Monsoon and Ben de la Creme in a Christmas special that packs a punch, where nothing and no one is spared and the nasty jibes against everything that seems sacred to everyone at Christmas and yet is so hypocritically bypassed land at least 90% in the pit of the stomach and the laugh muscles at the same time. Add to that an amazingly good singing voice by Jinkx and the result is a brisk hour of good entertainment, provided you have a critical attitude towards church and religion anyway. Otherwise, you might want to throw Molotov cocktails into the TV.

I don't know why but I can imagine rewatching this every year at an interactive movie theater like we do for Rocky Horror.
